After some discussion, the upper echelons of the Yuehua School believed that the sects were too scattered, which was detrimental to their development. Therefore, they planned to integrate the Yuehua School, the Divine Sword Sect, the Spirit Medicine Villa, the Beast King Palace, and the Royal Family of Northern Han to establish the 'Heaven's Chosen Academy'.
Everyone understood that the Heaven's Chosen Academy was established because of the existence of Ling Xiao, the Heaven's Chosen Son.
Furthermore, Wu Xiang, the Moon Maiden, the new Crown Prince of Northern Han, Zhao Zhi, and the Divine Sword Sect's Sect Master Ling Wuhen were all willing to recommend Ling Xiao as the master of the Heaven's Chosen Academy.
However, Ling Xiao refused.
Although he needed such a power as a backing, his true pursuit was to pursue the limits of martial arts.
Therefore, he only wanted the empty position of an elder and recommended Wu Xiang as the Heaven's Chosen Academy's Principal.
This was equivalent to his power.
Although some people in Northern Han were unhappy, it was useless. The current Northern Han existed under the protection of the Heaven's Chosen Academy. It was already good that the Heaven's Chosen Academy did not directly overthrow the Royal Family of Northern Han.
In addition, the Sage Emperor was unable to endure and died from serious injuries. Before he died, he passed the position of Sage Emperor to his Holy Son, Hime Myung-kō.
No one objected to this. In any case, the current Sage Emperor was nothing more than an empty shell. No one cared.
The name of the Heaven's Chosen Son was even more resounding than the Sage Emperor.
After all, the scene of him driving away numerous experts of the Sea Race in the Martial Arts Festival was too shocking.
Hime Myung-kō also chose to join the Heaven's Chosen Academy. She was a smart person. She no longer cared about power and concentrated on cultivating martial arts. She wholeheartedly wanted to kill Sikong Zun and avenge her father.
Ji Mingfeng became a general of Northern Han and was still in charge of guarding the border. In any case, he was already used to this kind of thing. Staying in the Royal Capital was not a pleasant experience.
The Highest Sage Emperor chose to go into seclusion to heal his injuries and no longer cared about political matters. It was estimated that his injuries were not light and that he would not be able to leave seclusion for a long time.
The Moon Maiden also did not care about these trivial matters. She continued to live in her Moon Palace, free and unfettered.
As time passed, the war on the Heavenly Dragon Continent continued.
The True Demons Empire had already conquered all of the Heavenly Dragon Continent's territories, excluding the Tianli Kingdom and the Northern Han Kingdom.
Their auras were no weaker than back then.
However, in terms of overall strength, it was still not as good as it was back then. After all, there was one less True Devil Supreme Lord, and out of the nine Great Devil Kings, only the Yin Yang Devil King and the Lightning Devil King had appeared.
Therefore, at this time, they stopped their attacks and announced peaceful coexistence with the Tianli Kingdom and the Northern Han Kingdom, sharing the Heavenly Dragon Continent.
Although the words sounded dignified, many people understood that this was because the Yin Yang Demon King and the Lightning Demon King were injured. In addition, the True Demonic Empire's overall strength was unable to defeat the Northern Han and Tianli Kingdoms.
After all, Northern Han had the Moon Maiden. Even if the Yin Yang Demon King and the Lightning Demon King worked together, they might not be a match for her.
Therefore, they were temporarily at a truce, probably because they wanted to revive the rest of the Demon Kings and even the True Devil Emperor as soon as possible.
At this time, Ling Xiao felt that it was time for him to leave. He had to seize this rare opportunity to catch a breather and increase his strength!
The Northern Han Kingdom was too small, and he cultivated in a different direction from the Moon Maiden and the Grand Holy Emperor. His master, Yuan Venerate, could give him pointers, but under the blockade of the True Demonic Empire and the Tianli Kingdom, it was difficult to obtain all kinds of resources.
Staying here would completely block his martial path. Even if he could recover his cultivation, he was afraid that he would not be able to improve it again.
On the Heavenly Dragon Continent, basically all the martialists with Sky Tier cultivation and above had gone to the Divine Phoenix Continent. Some were even further away.
Therefore, he wanted to go to the Divine Phoenix Continent and find an opportunity to improve his cultivation on that stronger continent.
This was also something that the chosen one should do, so there was nothing wrong with him bringing it up.
His idea was approved by the Moon Maiden and the others.
However, Hime Myung-kō, Ying Wuya, Lan Yu 'er, Leng Hao, Long Chen, Dai Yuling, Dai Yaoling, Zhao Zhi, and Zhao Ci also hoped to go to the Divine Phoenix Continent to gain experience.
Only when the younger generation matured would the Heaven's Chosen Academy become even more powerful in the future.
"This is a good plan. Furthermore, any sect on the Divine Phoenix Continent is much stronger than the Twelve Sects. If we can make friends with some forces there, we will have some help when we counterattack the True Demonic Empire in the future!"
Wu Xiang said after some thought.
Then, he took out a nautical chart and a map of the Divine Phoenix Continent and gave them to Ling Xiao. He continued, "You are the person in charge of going to the Divine Phoenix Continent to gain experience this time. Take these two maps. These things are very precious and are treasures of the Sacred Dynasty. If you lose them, they will be gone."
Ling Xiao immediately chose to copy the maps after receiving them.
The Divine Phoenix Continent was much larger than the Heavenly Dragon Continent, and its laws were more complete. Therefore, the overall strength of the martialists there was much stronger than that of the Heavenly Dragon Continent.
Of course, there were also weak people. After all, there were some people on every continent who were not suitable for martial arts. Furthermore, no matter what race they were, they would not be martialists from birth.
The main inhabitants of the Divine Phoenix Continent were the Fiery Phoenix Race. There were also the Roc Race, the Peacock Race, and so on.
They were not humans, so they did not cultivate their martial souls. Instead, they focused on awakening their bloodlines. However, their cultivation and fighting methods were not much different from humans.
"Making friends with forces is just an extravagant hope of mine. If it is not possible, don't force it. The main purpose of you going to the Divine Phoenix Continent is to cultivate and increase your strength! If possible, open up a smuggling channel and provide Northern Han with cultivation resources is also very good. "
Wu Xiang added.
"Senior Brother Wu, I understand. I will work hard to open up this smuggling channel."
Ling Xiao knew that this was the key. Otherwise, under the long-term blockade, the gap between Northern Han's martialists and the True Demonic Empire and the Tianli Empire's martialists would become increasingly large.
Although the Tianli Empire had already declared war on the True Demonic Empire, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Tianli Empire was only a force supported by the Sea Race. Just like the Blue Water Divine Palace, it could only be used at a crucial time.
"Master, since you have been to the Divine Phoenix Continent, can you give me some pointers? Which sect or country would be more suitable?"
Ling Xiao asked the Yuan Venerate.
"Well, I went to the Divine Phoenix Continent too early. I reckon that the situation would be different when I came out."
The Yuan Venerate pondered for a moment.
"Junior Brother Ling, take this with you."
Wu Xiang took out a three-inch-long throwing knife from his storage ring. It was obviously made of jade and contained a special divine runic array. It was actually an immortal-grade artifact.
Of course, even though it was an immortal-grade artifact, its grade was not too high. Most importantly, this thing should have a special meaning.
The word "Phoenix" was carved on the handle of the throwing knife.
When he took out this item, Wu Xiang's expression was a little strange. It seemed sad, regretful, and helpless.
Of course, this expression was fleeting.
